TV Shows - Huckleberry Hound
Hanna-Barbera's second series, made specifically for television, The Huckleberry Hound Show was a 1958 syndicated animated series. Three segments were included in the program: one featuring Huckleberry Hound; Yogi Bear and his sidekick Boo Boo; and Pixie and Dixie, two mice who in each short found a new way to outwit the cat Mr. Jinks. The Yogi Bear segment of the show proved more popular than Huckleberry's; it spawned its own series in 1961.[1] A segment featuring Hokey Wolf and Ding-a-Ling was added.
In 1961, the series became the first animated program to be honoured with an Emmy Award,American television's highest honor. The Huckleberry Hound Show was probably the series that truly made Hanna-Barbera a household name, and is often credited with legitimizing the concept of animation produced specifically for television.

I never really watched the cartoons from this show until they started showing up on You Tube. Huck is funny, but I enjoy the Pixie and Dixie cartoons the best. I think that Jinks the cat, also known as Jinksy, had one of the best cartoon voices ever.

ChrissyM,
Are you saying that Huckleberry should have,instead, been grey due to his Southern accent? OK cartoon timefiller but I wonder if there are there more boomers who remember him than the namesake created by Mark Twain? -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on July 7, 2009, 12:19 pm - (1 votes)
